Matt Ryan to Star in "Constantine" TV Series

We already have "Arrow," "The Flash" and "Gotham" TV series, which are based on DC Comics properties. And now NBC has announced that it's developing another one, "Constantine," which is being written by David Goyer, the man behind "Man of Steel" and "The Dark Knight" trilogy.

"Constantine" centers on John Constantine, an enigmatic and irreverent con-man, who becomes a reluctant supernatural detective and is thrust into the role of defending the world against dark forces from beyond. When the daughter of a late friend is targeted by demons, Constantine steps in to save her.

NBC has also revealed that the title role will be played by Welsh actor Matt Ryan, who's known for "Collision," "Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior," and "Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag."

NBC is more afraid of wasting money than any other network and they will drop the show early on if the show turned out to be more expensive to be produced. In fact, before the season is over, NBC will panic and hit the ejection button.

Although I did feel they just took too much time to set it up. As I recall, it was gonna be about Constatine try and stop the Apocalypse from happening...f*cking ambitious and really don't know how'd they pull THAT off.

Lawrence's version, even straying away from the comic book look (Constatine was blonde) really had a cool vibe and I liked how the character had all these tattoos that helped him do spells...

The ending was pretty cool and unexpected as well...

It was a shame, Constatine was one of the few sequels Reeves could really have carried...
